Our so-called commander in chief’s latest actions in closing of our national parks, memorials and historic sites is a disgusting and shameful betrayal of our nation’s veterans and a slap in the face to all of the nation’s citizens.

And this only compounds the situation in which families of patriots recently killed-in-action were denied their death benefits by the same department that sent them into harm’s way.

During this financial crisis, we still poured out foreign aid to the United Nations and Congress still got paid while families of America’s finest and noblest were left to fend for themselves, until rescued by volunteers who truly love our armed forces — the Fisher House.

On the first day of this selective slowdown, the administration awarded $450 million to the Public Broadcasting System so that Big Bird, Ernie and Elmo could continue their march. In the meantime, “barry-cades” appeared out of nowhere to keep our veterans from visiting memorials dedicated to their deeds and sacrifices. Talk about dis-missed.

Since day one of this regime, his eminence in the White House has appeared more comfortable with those in the far-left faculty lounge than he has with those of us in the rest of America. Had our young community organizer spent more time with U.S. history, he would have known that millions of Americans — white, black, olive, red and yellow — with the oxygen of freedom flowing in their veins, have given their lives so that maybe one day, an American man or woman of any racial or ethnic background could succeed and become president of our great nation.

Ultimately, perhaps all the sacrifice will not be in vain as Precedent Obama has had his two elections. Semper Fi and may God continue to bless America.
